media: uvcvideo: Stop stream during unregister


commit c9ec6f1736363b2b2bb4e266997389740f628441 upstream.

uvc_unregister_video() can be called asynchronously from
uvc_disconnect(). If the device is still streaming when that happens, a
plethora of race conditions can occur.

Make sure that the device has stopped streaming before exiting this
function.

If the user still holds handles to the driver's file descriptors, any
ioctl will return -ENODEV from the v4l2 core.

This change makes uvc more consistent with the rest of the v4l2 drivers
using the vb2_fop_* and vb2_ioctl_* helpers.

This driver (and many other usb drivers) always had this problem, but it
wasn't possible to easily fix this until the vb2_video_unregister_device()
helper was added. So the Fixes tag points to the creation of that helper.
